U-G-L-Y, BMW should have let it die. It's ugly! It's ugly!
Actually it's fugly.

Oh, and BMW got that mobility program from Fiat.
I have a Fiat 500e and they offer free rentals so you can go on weekend trips.
You have a Fiat 500e and you think the i3 is ugly? People that live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones, have you looked at that dash in the Fiat? WTF? It looks like a woman's birth control compaq. That car is defiantly marketed towards women; on the flip side, have you seen the interior on the i3? Its AMAZING. Especially Tera World with professional nav.

Why cant hybrids and electric cars be cool and sexy looking?
They are coming! X5 PHEV is available now, 330e is coming, new 7er PHEV is coming, new X1 PHEV is coming. BMW will soon offer PHEV on every model, including M's eventually.

It can be explained to you many times, but you can't be made to understand it.

Especially negative comments about something never experienced is just wrong. Looks on the other hand are so personal that it does not matter.
Thanks for the backup! Amazing how such an advanced car that doesn't pollute can be hated so bad. I just don't get it. You don't have to buy one, just like you don't have to buy a 7er Li or an X6, that doesn't mean you have to have post such fowl things about it online. Its frustrating sometimes to live in a world where everybody thinks their opinion matters. Sorry but it really doesn't, just because you have access to discussions doesn't mean your opinion matters. This can be a blanket statement for hot topics online and on FB as well.

That being said, the e46 M3 and ZHP coupe are still home in the garage.
I wanted a 4.6/4.8is in Imola Red to match my ZHP for so long. What is unfortunate is that those trucks, as well as the e46's, just don't stay new forever. I wish I could have kept my ZHP and bought the i3 but I got WAY too much money for my ZHP (private all cash sale). I had to take the money and run. If you haven't joined the i3 FB group, I highly recommend it. Its a bit chatty but a great resource, there are several i3 forums and none of them seem to be that active yet, but the FB group is very active.
